 Informative Oct 03, 2009
It's a very Informative book. I would have liked to have seen some definitions of The actual Kenpo Moves with a breakdown of the belt system however.
I'm pretty new to Kenpo (still a white belt) and the thing I find hardest to remember is the names of some of the moves. A more detailed explanation of them and how they were named was kind of why I bought the book, yet it's pretty much the only thing NOT in there.
Not that I don't like the book, I just wish it was more suited to my needs.

Book of definitions Aug 16, 2008
This is really a dictionary of kenpo. Well written but it is literally an alphabetical list of terms and their definitions. I was hoping for something that would explain the techniques.

Glossary of Kenpo Jun 12, 2008
Classic Ed Parker. The book is an convenient reference and seems comprehensive. If you are trying to get more familiar with American Kenpo terminology this is the book to get. But you should read the "Ed Parker's Infinite Insights into Kenpo" series first and use this one as a supplement.

 A must for all Kenpo students Sep 18, 2001
If you are, or want to be, a kenpo karate student this encyclopedia is a must. It goes over all the terminology that is needed throughout your training. Written by Edmund K. Parker, the founder of American Kenpo Karate, a great man and well respected martial artist.

Very informative for any belt rank. Mar 21, 1999
Mr. Parker was a genius of motion and like his Karate, this book is well organized and covers it all.
